Description from the seller

Sealed reliquary case of Saint John-Marie Vianney, Curé of Ars – Ex Veste Talari

Circular reliquary case in silvered metal containing a textile relic from the cassock of Saint John-Marie Vianney (1786-1859), the famous Curé of Ars.

The relic is presented at the center of a golden fabric background, surrounded by a handwritten titulus bearing the Latin inscription: “Ex Veste Talari S. Joh. Bap. Vianney, Cur. Ars” Meaning: “From the cassock of Saint John-Baptist-Marie Vianney, Curé of Ars.” On the reverse, the reliquary retains its ecclesiastical red wax seal, held by four red silk threads, as well as an old label bearing the handwritten inscription “Bruges, Dioc.” and the number 35830.

Good condition with the existing ancient seal present. Some traces of use in keeping with the age.

Photos are an integral part of the object description and complete its presentation. They allow you to assess its condition and features. Please examine them carefully before any engagement.

The item will be carefully packed and shipped with a tracking number to ensure fast and secure delivery.

Happy bidding

In accordance with canon law (can. 1190 §1), this sale concerns only the reliquary as a sacred art object. The relics it contains are not the subject of the transaction, but are included gratuitously for their historical and cultural value.
